67,000 ACRES OF BORN-AGAIN WILDERNESS
Sunset game drives and walking safari’s are the norm and as children are partaking in special children’s activities, indulge in the spa.
In front of our eyes, the cat turns into a blur of speed. Your camera is on its fastest setting, but will it capture the combination of speed, poise and intent that is a cheetah hunting at full stretch? And cheetahs aren’t the only creature that commend the attention of your lens at Samara.
There are aardvark, vervet monkeys and baboons. There are miniscule shrews, mongooses, bats and bat-eared foxes, otters and polecats, genet, leopard, hyena, rhinos, giraffe and zebra. Plus over 200 bird species, from eagles and owls to woodpeckers and weavers.
Visit Samara and you have the chance of seeing them – and helping conserve them for the future.
